3# ramsleuth-intel-dkms — an optional provisioning extra for RamSleuth's live
4# Intel IMC subtimings (the ramsleuth_intel kernel module). NOT a hard
5# dependency: without it RamSleuth degrades gracefully (Intel section reads
6# N/A (DriverMissing), exit 0, no panic; the /dev/mem fallback remains
7# available where unblocked).
8#
9# Design — thin provisioning package mirroring ryzen-smu-dkms: package()
10# installs (1) the DKMS configuration (kernel/ramsleuth-intel/dkms.conf, to
11# /usr/share/ramsleuth-intel-dkms/dkms.conf), (2) the operator-run install
12# helper (scripts/install-intel-dkms.sh, as /usr/bin/ramsleuth-intel-dkms-install
13# — the D-18.4-style name distinct from ramsleuth's /usr/bin/ramsleuth-install-
14# intel-dkms, so the packages coexist without a pacman file conflict), (3) the
15# in-repo module source tree (kernel/ramsleuth-intel/) verbatim to
16# /usr/share/ramsleuth-intel-dkms/src/ — the exact installed path the
17# INTEL-06 helper resolves (no network, no upstream pin: the module lives in
18# this repo, unlike the AMD vendored ryzen_smu), and (4) a short README.
19#
20# SOURCE — the branch-pinned RamSleuth repo (sibling pattern, like the AMD
21# extra): pkgver is the FIXED ramsleuth workspace version (2.4.0 today;
22# bumped with the INTEL-20 release). The git source CANNOT be tag-pinned
23# here: the v2.2.1 tag (c82a9ad) predates the kernel/ramsleuth-intel/ merge
24# (v2-development), so only the development branch carries the module.
25#
26# SAFETY: no kernel-module build in the build chroot — a `dkms
27# build`/`dkms install` there would fail (no matching kernel headers) and be
28# wrong (it builds against the chroot kernel, not the target's). The actual
29# dkms add/build/install runs on the TARGET via the bundled helper:
30#
31# sudo ramsleuth-intel-dkms-install
32#
33# AUTOINSTALL=yes in the bundled dkms.conf: DKMS auto-rebuilds the module on
34# kernel updates. The ramsleuth systemd unit never loads the module.
35#
36# Intel-only by design: on a non-Intel host the module builds fine, modprobe
37# leaves it idle (no kobject), and the helper exits 0 with a clear note.
38#
39# License: the package content is the GPL-2.0 module source (SPDX
40# GPL-2.0 — a separate work from the MIT RamSleuth code, built only by DKMS
41# on the target) + the MIT helper; license= lists GPL-2.0-only per the
42# INTEL-07 spec. `git` is NOT a package dep: the source resolves from the
43# installed /usr/share copy (no clone on the target path).

90ramsleuth-intel-dkms (optional RamSleuth extra)
91================================================
92
93OPTIONAL recommended extra for live Intel IMC subtimings. Without it,
94RamSleuth works: the Intel section reads "N/A (DriverMissing)", exit 0,
95no panic (the /dev/mem fallback remains available where unblocked).
96
97Build and install the module for this system's current kernel:
98
99 sudo ramsleuth-intel-dkms-install
100
101(the helper verifies the matching kernel headers; if missing it lists
102candidate packages and stops — it does not guess).
103
104The module source is the in-repo kernel/ramsleuth-intel/ tree (GPL-2.0 —
105a separate work from the MIT RamSleuth code, built only by DKMS on the
106target). No network, no upstream pin: this package ships it verbatim.
107
108Thin provisioning package: the module is never built in the AUR build
109chroot (wrong kernel, no matching headers) — all dkms add/build/install
110work happens on the target, via the helper.
111
112Intel-only: on a non-Intel host the module builds fine but the load
113leaves it idle (no kobject); the helper exits 0 with a clear note and
114the app uses the /dev/mem fallback.
115
116AUTOINSTALL=yes in the bundled dkms.conf auto-rebuilds the module on
117kernel updates. The ramsleuth systemd unit never loads the module.
